It's December

Yes - it's December and the first day with Christmas parties. Yes, "parties". 

Saturday morning, eleven of us prepared to go to my Grandma's tea - it has been a tradition for years which we all look forward to. This was the second year the twins were able to attend, and the first that Zachary was able to go and serve for. It was such a fun way to start the day!

We got home about noon, and plans and preparations for the next party were made. The third annual fashion failure party. :) The first year, I won and was dubbed "Fancy Nancy"; the second year, I couldn't find anything, so I wore a ball gown with wacky hair since I had won the year before; being completely out of ideas this year, the fairy godmother Megan came and looked through my clothes and found this (I found the hair-do).

Parties have happened and more will be happening. I don't think I ever was thinking during these parties that we were having a birthday party. We call them Christmas parties, but, at least I, forget that I am celebrating Christ's coming to earth.

"For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder, and His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."

Isaiah 9:6

Merry Christmas!
